Answer to Problem 9CYU

The coordinate of midpoint is (4, -5.5).

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

  J(5,3) and K(3,8)

Formula used:

Midpoint formula = x2+x12 for coordinate of x .

Calculation:

Let

  x1=5,x2=3 and,

  y1=3,y2=8

For x coordinate, substituting values,

  xm = 5+32

Solving,

  xm = 82

Hence, xm = 4

For y coordinate, substituting values,

  ym=3+(8)2

Solving,

  ym=112

Hence, ym=5.5

The coordinate of midpoint is (4, -5.5).
